Lyrics
Kites Against The Wind © 2006 Lyrics by Bobbie Gallup ASCAP Courtroom filled to overflowing Val knew they’d disagree But she had to stop them kids From being killed in Tennessee Many folks came just to complain No more taxes, not one dime To help the victims of abuse She put that from her mind BUILD: Can’t let opposition scare me I’m made of stronger stuff And when it comes to accepting what is wrong I’ve just plain had enough CHORUS: When the world seems out to get you And courage is running thin Just remember that a kite only rises When it flies against the wind Billy saw the bullies on the corner They were dissin little Joe He wanted to run away But his instincts wouldn’t let it go He ran right over to them Helped Joe back on his feet Though any minute he expected They would knock him right down to the street BUILD: Repeat CHORUS: Repeat BRIDGE: With love… We can rise above What seems to stand in our way It may be what gets us going Gets our backbone showing CHORUS: Repeat
